Hi all;
I'm still hoping to get some help out at the greenhouse in the next few weeks.
Help could consist of digging, power tool use, construction, soil
compaction (yes, really!), painting, seeding, and hauling heavy stuff.
Sounds like a blast, doesn't it?
However, it's indoors, and out of this never ending rain! And there
will be food and drink provided!

Directions on my Contact page: http://howlingmoose.com/contact/contact.html

Also, a favor. Would those of you active on social media sites like
twitter and facebook friend me, so my work day announcements might get
seen by friends of friends, etc?

In addition, if you would simply like a tour, or have an hour to
spare, please let me know. I'm always happy to show people around! But
I'm not always at the greenhouse, so contact me first:

Hi All!
I'm going to have three workdays in the next week or so, and hopefully
really push things hard out at the Greenhouse.

Workdays!
Tuesday, June 28th (this Tuesday)
Starting around 9:00 am and going until whenever. I hope to rent a
soil compacter for this day. Come get your hands shaken off! =)

Saturday, July 2nd (I know, it's the 4th weekend, but that's when
people responded that they're available)
Noon-5:00
If we get enough soil compacted, this will be a trough building day. Table saw!

Tuesday, July 5th (again with the long weekend, fool!)
9:00am til whenever.
This is when Stefan said he might be available, and he was such fun
with the power drill... ;-)

Bring your friends! =)

Thanks,
-Karen

Oops, someone asked for the location. Thanks for asking.
The greenhouse is out in Hugo, MN. There's a map and some pics to help
guide folks in here:

Despite what that site says, there ARE bathrooms available. They're
just behind a locked door.
